    SELECT email in subscribers where email = '  

user1@example com' or 'user2@example com';

And just keep "or"ing for thousands of addresses

I'm no sql wizard, but maybe: SELECT email FROM subscribers WHERE email IN ('user1@example com', ' user2@example com', 'userN@example com'); is more efficient?

(Looks up "IN" in SQL book - Finds header entitled, "Avoiding OR",
when looking in the index for, "IN")

Yes! You seem to be on the right track ;)

I'll play around with that soon enough

Ok, benchmarked some tests - in Postgres at least, there's no real
difference between the way it's being done and using just one query
that uses, "IN" Browsing a bit online, looks like in Postgres "IN"
statements are changed to a list of, "OR" statements anyways I'm
also a little worried about feed the SQL server a huge query with
thousands of addresses, it may just choke

So, I'm going to hold off implementing anything different for now I
think the solution is to just bunch the addresses up in smaller bits
- perhaps as small as 100, so not to get a browser timeout For now,
I guess a workaround is to use the command line script I just posted
